    rims are 17 x 9.5 tires are 275/40/17 all around.

    I think they are the perfect size and make the car's stance much more aggressive. I can slightly feel the drag from the heavier wheels though.
    very good choice, exactly what i went with. definitely makes a killer stance and handles much better along with my other suspension goodies :D i did my full exhaust, tune, and upgrades right after my rims so i couldn't really say they hurt my performance too much. are you on stock springs or do you have a slight drop? also what tire brand did you decide on? i went with nitto's and they're amazing.

    and of course, what's next on the to-do list?

        I hear you... I threw on a set of C5s that are the same size and burnouts haven't been the same since :(
        It handles/looks great though so it has that going for it.

        Nice Camaro Koa, :tup:
        thanks man! I know how you feel with the burn outs. I've been rolling around on the 16's since I've gotten the car so when I put these on I def felt the diff.

        well I bought the wheels off oewheels llc on ebay. everything came shipped for around 1100. the tires are nexen n300 I think. I've had this brand before and its not the top notch but for everyday driving they are perfectly fine.

        Right now I'm on blistein shocks/SLP springs, I think its a slight 1" drop not sure.

        My suspension is done, LCA, LCA relo brackets, adj. panhard bar, alum driveshaft, weld in SFC, blistein shocks/SLP springs ( I could upgrade my shocks and springs though.)

        Right now I'm actually waiting on some mufflers to arrive so I can get my true dual exhaust started. I've also got some 3.73 gears that need to be installed. I really need a tune as well, I've got HPT recently but I'm still trying to figure out how to use it lol.
